New York courts determine custody based on the best interests of the child, considering factors like each parent's living situation, the child's relationship with each parent, stability, and the ability to provide for the child's needs. We advocate strongly for arrangements that protect your relationship with your child.
Uncontested divorces can be finalized in a few months. Contested divorces involving disputes over custody, property, or support can take significantly longer. We work to resolve matters efficiently while protecting your rights at every step.
While not legally required, having an experienced attorney is critical to protecting your financial interests, parental rights, and future. Divorce involves complex issues around property division, support, and custody that can have lasting consequences if handled improperly.
